Just a further comment on this, based upon the patch Heikki recently
committed.

I raised various issues with recovery *after* feature freeze in 8.3,
doing everything you mentioned above: patch (Jun '07), 4 months before
beta1. 3.5 months later the patch was still un-reviewed and you deferred
the patch until 8.4, without comment (Sep '07). Changes were eventually
committed more than a year after original discussion (Apr '08).
HACKERS "Minor changes to recovery related code"

My other comments relate to that experience, and others.
